This interactive caregiver simulation allows participants to experience a fraction of the challenges that caregivers face, day in and day out. Each participant is assigned a role, tasks, dilemmas and opportunities to navigate throughout the simulation. We believe that this experience can help develop empathy for caregivers, care receivers and agencies who are involved along the way.

This no-cost event is open to all healthcare and human service professionals, area agency on aging staff, advocates, case managers, discharge planners, transportation and housing organizations, home health care agencies, meal programs, adult day time programs, houses of worship as well as volunteer organizations that provide direct services or assist informal caregivers in Chemung, Schuyler, Steuben, Tioga, Tompkins, Livingston and Alleghany counties. CEU credits will be available for Social Workers.

Registration is limited and required. If you would like to learn more, please call Laurie Hansen at 737-5520.
